Remote Denial of Service security problem

Do you know IP land attack?

SC can be crashed by the same scenario (requesting its own URL):

Example:
1. Run SC on port 8080
2. Telnet 127.0.0.1 8080
3. Type: GET http://127.0.0.1:8080/ HTTP/1.0 + enter + enter
4. SC goes down, creates infinite number of threads. 

This security problem is still unfixed.
